Ashley continued her conversation with Brooklyn, though she was not all that focused. The two of them used to be rather closed. When Ash was much younger, Brooke taught her how to dance. She was the only girl that Andrew dated that the dragoness had approved of. But Ashley lost touch with her after she was disowned by the family for what she did to Andrew. She was unsure if Brooke knew that it was Ashley that had briefly ripped her boyfriend away from him. Ash never expressed it out loud because she despised talking about it. That was the only kill that had been a complete accident. Something came over her and she still could not explain it. Ash felt as though Brooke was no longer bothered considering she never expressed hatred towards her. They had only even reconnected now because Brooke and Ashley had done the same thing. Betrayed their family. No one on the other side was talking to either of them right now. Or at least not to Ashley, she could not speak for the siren. The idea of her family was making her quite sad, though she can’t be any more miserable than she was.
Ashley knows what Victoria does when she is behind closed doors. The dragoness tried to pretend as though the demon’s unfaithfulness had not bothered her. But it did. Every time she knew about another partner Ashley’s heart broke even more. Because Ashley loved Victoria so much, she tried to look past it. Make an excuse for what she was doing. But Ashley was done making excuses and pretending to be happy. Ash wanted to leave. She wanted to leave the demon and go back to the only family member she knows that still loves her. She owes Andrew an apology, but she wasn’t quite sure anyone else would accept her at this point. Though she had Brooke, they were both on the same page. About going home to family. Ashley had practically forgotten she was talking to Brooke, as she wallowed in her misery.
She was only brought to reality when Brooke started to go pale. She was headed for the floor and Markus was quick to take action. Ashley wasn’t really sure what to do. She did not know what to do. This had never happened to her before. Having to take care of another person. But the banshee was looking to her for help. ”Pick her up. We need to get her to her room.” She demanded. The best thing they could do for her was get her somewhere comfortable where she could rest. Once Markus had her in hand, she lead him to him to her room.
